A Spanish lawmaker says he wouldn’t feel safe in the U.S. after the FBI used his photograph to create a digitally enhanced image of Osama bin Laden.
An FBI spokesman acknowledged that the agency used a photo of Gaspar Llamazares found on the Internet to create the image, Spanish newspaper El Mundo reported. The image reportedly features the Spaniard’s hair and other features.
“I was surprised and angered because it’s the most shameless use of a real person to make up the image of a terrorist,” Llamazares told a news conference. He demanded further explanation by the FBI and has threatened to file suit.
